After the Hebrew Bible was translated into English, much of the poetics were unfortunately rendered invisible. Fortunately, much of the analysis for poetic devices could be helped by a computer program.
Our Vision
We want to build a
Bible Study Web App
with Tools for Exploring
Poetic Devices.

Display passage in original Hebrew Word Count and Word Order
Automatically highlight Repeated Words and Synonyms
Future Features
Inclusio detection

Poetry is an art and each poem is doing something unique, but programs use logic and rules. Bridging this difference will be a major challenge.
Bible Poetry is not well known in the christian community. We have alot of work ahead in increasing awareness and building a userbase
Analyzing for poetic devices is not straight forward, and there are substantial differences between Hebrew poetry and English poetry as we know it! One of the big challenges include teaching the world what Bible Poetry is and how to use the app to look for poetic devices.
Major Challenges
We currently have a team of
five programmers
and we are working hard on it!
The Web App is Coming Soon…
Join our BetaTesting!
When our Web App is ready, we would love for you to join us for Beta Testing! Your feedback and input is important in helping us know how the tool can serve God’s people best. In addition to launch dates and development plans, we will also be sharing how God provides when we encounter challenges along the way. How Exciting!
